France: E-reporting requirements for foreign companies without PE

E-reporting (but not e-invoicing) may apply to transaction and payment data for French VAT-taxable transactions

July 20, 2026

The French tax authority (Direction Générale des Finances Publiques (DGFiP)) on June 4, 2026, issued guidance on e-reporting requirements for foreign companies without a permanent establishment (PE) in France.

The guidance clarifies that e-invoicing does not apply to such foreign companies, but e-reporting may apply to transaction and payment data for French VAT-taxable transactions, with phased implementation from September 1, 2026, and September 1, 2027.
